A bloop double by Don Baylor gave the Angels a 1-0 triumph over the Orioles in a 14-inning marathon. Rick Miller drew a one-out walk in the 14th and, after Lyman Bostock struck out, scored when Baylor hit a popup to center that fell safe. Nolan Ryan pitched the first seven innings for the Angels but was forced to leave with a rib separation on his left side. [The Sporting News]
